This year the tiny car from the duke electric vehicles team beat the 12 600 mpg efficiency of the pac car 2 in turn designed by a student team at the eidgenössische technische hochschule eth in.
Most efficient electric motor in the world.
Electric motors can be powered by direct current dc sources such as from batteries motor vehicles.
The world record efficiency was reached by optimizing the motor s electrical and mechanical features based on abb s application knowledge and more than 100 years of experience in manufacturing electric motors.
For a human to set a world record a critical key factor is to limit your energy losses so you get the maximum output.
Lowest energy losses mean highest motor efficiency.
An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor s magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor s shaft.
The gemini produces optimum rotational power and torque by using both sides of the energised coil and it does so without consuming any additional energy.
Today electric motors use an estimated 28 of the total electrical power consumed worldwide.
2 toshiba a world leading diversified manufacturer and solutions provider entered the electric motors industry in 1970 and has since become known for manufacturing some of the most reliable robust electric motors in the global market the company offers a wide range of low and medium voltage motors that are setting new standards in extreme duty performance and durability.
The average efficiency for this type of synchronous motor is between 98 2 and 98 8 percent.
One little hydrogen fuel cell vehicle holds the guinness world record for the most efficient vehicle and uses a slotless brushless 60l h 175 a from koford motors to drive its rear power wheel.
